Fatherhood So Far...
I am supposed to be on call today (if you read my last post), but surprisingly today I received a phone call from a colleague, and he is willing to take up my call today; so that I can enjoy my paternity leave! I am glad to have such understanding and considerate colleague, in this new place of work! :) Thanks pal!
Few days have past, and it's indeed nice to be a father; well, at least every morning, I don't get off bed yawning or lying down a little more just to catch that few more minutes of sleep. Now, I jump off bed, and can't wait to see my cute little daughter -- then snap a few photos of her, in various postures; be it crying, smiling, making funny faces etc. Just awesome! :)
My life is now in a new chapter -- full of hopes! Sometimes people do think that marriage and having children are just burdensome, but for me and my wife, we both think it's a gift; and we will cherish every moment that we have!
My new house is almost done. Can't wait to move in. I will probably hold a house warming party, in conjunction with my baby's one month old celebration! ;) Hope it will be in time!

Arrival Of My Baby
My baby was delivered last night at 1120pm, at Damansara Specialist Hospital. She weighs 2.7kg, term and Apgar of 9 in 1 minute. The O&G specialist, Dr Guna, who delivered her, was really skillful and slick in his management. I have to thank him, as well as to all the labour room midwives, who were all very nice and helpful. Well, it could be because it's in private, and I am paying thousands for that. But I can tell you that it's well worth paying the money!
The only problem is that, although my paternity leaves start from yesterday (for 7 days), I still have 2 on calls in between which none of my colleagues willing to change with me. So I still gotta go back to on call! That's something very different in terms of working culture here in Klang Valley, compared to where I was back in Sibu! But I think I am adapting quite ok so far -- at least I know that my baby and my wife are fine! Happy enough.

Time Flies
Time flies. It's been a month, and I haven't been updating my blog. Today, I get pm off after a rather busy on call yesterday.
My work
I am slowly adapting to the new hospital I am in. With great colleagues (so far) and nice specialists, really makes a lot of difference for a newbie like me adjusting to the Klang Valley working environment. I must admit that my "Sarawak sentiment" still follows me in my new work place, but overall, I am getting on quite well here.
My house
My new house renovation is about 70% done so far, and everyday without fail, I will drive past my new house to take a peep at the progress. Very exciting indeed. Today you see the empty balcony, 2 days later it's bricked up and becomes part of the top floor.
My friends
A few friends are getting married end of this year, around October till December. So nice to see all my friends finally settle down with their own soul mates, and move on to the next chapter in life. I wish I can attend each and every wedding reception held, or at least I can send the angpow right to their doorsteps. Congrats all my friends!
My baby
I am eagerly waiting for the arrival of my first baby, sometime in early Sept. Just signed up with CryoCord and that cost me RM4500! ;)
(oh please, I don't want to start a debate on the usefulness of cord stem cell, or why CryoCord and not StemLife... you decide what you want to do with your own money anyway! Haha!)
Although I already know the gender of my baby, I am not going to publish it here! Soon you all will find out.
My gadget
I am hoping that the rumour about HP coming out with new gadgets Sept this year, is true. I am hoping there will be a VGA display pdaphone, which doesnt cost me a bomb! I am really a gadget enthusiast; every now and then, I have the tendency to change a new pda or phone. I am still undergoing "behavioural therapy" by my wife (she is pursuing Psych anyway!)
My car
Currently there is only one car for me and my wife; we have booked a new car months ago, but it will not arrive till sometime in Oct. Good also, because by then my new house will be ready and the new car will be just right on time to come -- otherwise no place to park in my parents' house now!
My dream
Will try to finish up the membership exam as soon as possible.
